I'm not sure what went wrong, but my sweet potatoes were mushy. I think I'll try roasting them at a lower temperature next time.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made it with a rotisserie chicken and it turned out great.

This dish is perfect for a summer cookout. The chicken is grilled to perfection and the sweet potatoes are roasted until they're caramelized.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chicken turned out dry and tough. I'm going to try again with a different recipe.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll cut back on the amount of sugar next time.
